CHINESE-RUSSIAN TREATY
LONDON, Auk. 24.
Although the terms of the ChineseRussian Treaty signed in Moscow on August 14 are supposed to be secret until ratified by the two Governments, the Times diplomatic correspondent Bays some of the terms ore becoming known, notably that Chinese sovereignty over Manchukuo and Inner Mongolia is established and that the Chinese Eastern and South Manchukuo railways are to operate as a single system under joint Chinese-Russian control for a specified number of years. Port Arthur itself is also to be jointly used, while a special regime is prescribed for Dairen. In the Cliungking-Yenan dispute the treaty conies down unequivocally on the side of Chungking, winch is recognised as a central Government whose authority and administration must be respected. The correspondent adds that the treaty generally appears to establish a far firmer basis for stability in East Asia than seemed possible a few months ayo.
